Although the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) primarily involves the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, neurological manifestations, including movement disorders such as myoclonus and cerebellar ataxia, have also been reported. However, the occurrence of post-SARS-CoV-2 chorea is rare. Herein, we describe a 91-year-old female with a past medical history of hypothyroidism who developed chorea after two weeks of contracting a mild coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
尽管严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2(SARS-CoV-2)主要累及心血管和呼吸系统,但也有神经学表现的报道,包括运动障碍,如肌阵挛和小脑共济失调。然而,SARS-CoV-2感染后出现舞蹈症的情况较为罕见。在此,我们描述了一名91岁女性,既往有甲状腺功能减退病史,在感染轻度冠状病毒病(COVID-19)两周后出现舞蹈症。
